WILL GET MORE PAY
School Finance Committee Fa
vors Teachers.
TWO MEMBERS ON RECORD
Petition of Pedagogues Meets Ap
proval of Majority of Board, hut
Action May Be Deferred
Until Next Year.
There is every indication that teachers'
in the Portland public schools will be al
lowed the increase of 20 per cent in
salaries they have petitioned for, or at
least will be granted a portion of this
advance. Both Mrs. L. W. Sltton and I.
N. Flelschner, members of the finance
committee, to whom the petition has been
referred, believe the teachers are not now
receiving adequate pay. Flelschner de
clared yesterday that he would vote to
etrant the petition, and Mrs. Sltton said
that she had not considered the matter
sufficiently to know how much of an ad
vance she would favor. J. V. Beach said
he was ready to vote an increase In the
salary of teachers, and it is understood
that H. C. Campbell takes a similar view
of the matter, although he could not ba
seen yesterday. Herman Wittenberg alone
in opposed to granting an Increase at this
time. As the teachers are under contract
for the present year, he holds that the
Increase should not go into effect until
the next school year, and he believes it
to be Inadvisable to take any action at
this time.
Wittenberg was of the opinion that the
teachers were not requesting an increase
for the present year, but Acting Super
intendent Grout says this is not the case.
Their petition for 12 months' pay is for
the present year, and for this reason it
will be necessary for the directors to act
upon it before the taxpayers' meeting In
December, when the levy is voted.
Deserve More Pay.
"The school teachers certainly deserve
an increase." declared Flelschner yester
day. "I do not think that their request
for 12 months' pay at the present rate is
exorbitant, and I shall vote for it.
Teachers are now among the most poorly
paid classes of employes and they should
be one of the best. We should take into
consideration the high cost of living at
present, and also that teaching is hard,
tedious work.
"My idea Is to grant the higher sal
aries and if we have any teachers who
are not worth so much to the district,
we can let them go. Many good teach
ers, who would rather be in the Port
land schools than elsewhere, have gone
to other cities because they could earn
more money. With the increase that
has been asked for we would receive
more applications from thoroughly
competent teachers than we do at
present."
The opinion of Flelschner is shared
by Mrs. Sltton and Mr. Beach. Neither
Mrs. Sltton nor Mr. Beach, however,
is ready to say that the advance of 20
per cent should be allowed. They will
have to Investigate the matter more
thoroughly, they say, before they will
be ready to indorse any definite ecale
of salary.
"My idea is that this proposed ad
vance is not expected to go into effect
until the next school year," said Wlt
tenberg. "If the cost of living keeps
up until then, as it is now, I would
favor an advance of perhaps half the
amount asked for. It all depends on
conditions at that time, and I can see
no reason for us to decide the matter
now.
"There are a great many conditions
to be taken into consideration, and I
think we shall grant no increase hur
riedly. The plan suggested would cost
the city $100,000 more next year and
the added expenses would grow with
the extension of the schools. The
teachexa say we are paying less than
Oakland or Seattle, but it is also true
that the cost of living is lower here
than in those cities."
Leave to Taxpayers.
Whatever action is taken by the
board will be only in the nature of a
recommendation, as the higher tax levy
necessary would have to be voted at
the meeting of the taxpayers in Decem
ber. If the board voted for the higher
salaries, the taxpayers could prevent
them going into effect by refusing to
Increase the levy, and it would also
be possible for the voters to provide
more pay, even though it should not
be Indorsed by the board.
Teachers' salaries in Portland are
now lower than they were 15 years
ago. The high salaries that were once
paid were cut down during the hard
times of the early 90's. Since then
there have been two advances, but the
former schedule has not been reached.
The last Increase was voted by the tax
payers without the recommendation of
the board.
NIGHT SCHOOLS OPEN MONDAY
Large Increase In Attendance Is
Looked For This Year.
Portland's public night schools 'will
open for the regular season of five"
months next Monday in the West Side
High School, Williams avenue and Sunny
side buildings. The attendance at these
schools last year was 2S2 during the first
month and 460 for the entire term. It is
expected that this number will be ex
ceeded this year in proportion to the In
crease In the day schools.
Four assistant teachers have been
named for duty in the High School,
where Q. W. Henderson is principal. They
are H. S. Brlmholt. Mrs. W. C. Alder
son. Mrs. Julia Comstock and Miss Mar
garet Conway. Mrs. Julia McDaniel will
assist Principal William Parker at Wil
liams avenue. It is probable that another
assistant will be named in the High
School and a teacher will be named to
work with Principal G. N. McKay In the
Sunnyslde School,
Other teachers that have Just been
named to fill the vacancies in the day
schools are Miss Lela E. Chase, third
grade. Sell wood: Mrs. Jennie Richardson,
fifth grade. Brooklyn, and Miss Keine
Tuttle, assistant in the drawing depart
ment. OREGON FIR IS SUPREME
Spnds for Dredge Are Largest Tim

WASHINGTON. Oct. lo.-Advlces from

The anchor timbers or spuds that have
arrived at La Boca for use on the new

that have ever reached the Isthmus. They
come from Portland, Or., and are of the
finest Oregon fir. One of them is 8 by 9
Inches by 62 feet, another is 24 by 36 inches
